DMBand.com Road Page Notes
It was a special night at the Gorge. DMB played the final of their
three show stint; the set consisting of some less commonly played
songs. As Butch started the piano prelude to what was to become
Steady As We Go , he touched on a lick from Paul McCartney's
Blackbird . At that moment, each of the band members looked over at
him, smiled and nodded and suddenly they were playing the tune.
Completely impromptu, it was great to witness in person. A little
comedy ensued when Dave attempted to tease a few bars of #40 to kick
off the encore. Quickly realizing that the guitar he was grasping at
that moment had a different tuning than that required for #40 , he
stopped and chuckled along with the rest on stage. Fonz then busted
into the Crush intro, teasing Dreaming Tree along the way. We've got
a few days before our next show in Chula Vista on Thursday. We're
headed for the beach. See you there.
